First They Came for the Words

'The B Vocabulary of the EUSSR'

EU officials are “discreetly reviewing the language it uses to describe terrorists who claim to act in the name of Islam. EU officials are working on what they call a ‘lexicon’ for public communication on terrorism and Islam, designed to make clear that there is nothing in the religion to justify outrages like the Sept. 11 attacks or the bombings of Madrid and London. The lexicon would set down guidelines for EU officials and politicians.” [The term “Islamic terrorism” will no longer be used. Nor will words such as “Islamist,” “fundamentalist” and “jihad.”]



Then they came for those who had spoken out against, those who had taken the words.

'Google’s Terrorist News Source'

Google has selected al-Manar as one of its news sources. Al-Manar has a history of propagandizing for Hizballah and promoting violence against the United States and Israel. Michelle Malkin noted (February 2005) the exclusion of her blog and Little Green Footballs from Google News [Google News’s inclu(des) Democratic Underground and (the truly malicious uruknet.info.)]



Then They Came for the Christians

'Very bad Friday'

"The attacker stormed the church armed with a knife and shouted 'There
is no God but Allah' and 'Allah is the greatest' before stabbing the
worshippers."



Then They Came for the Jews

'Iran's President Reiterates Threat Against Israel'

TEHRAN, April 14 -- The president of Iran again lashed out at Israel on Friday and said the Jewish state was "heading toward annihilation," days after Tehran raised fears about its nuclear activities by saying it had advanced its efforts to enrich uranium.

President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad called Israel a "permanent threat" to the Middle East and said it would soon be liberated. He also appeared to again question whether the Holocaust took place.

"Like it or not, the Zionist regime is heading toward annihilation," Ahmadinejad said at the opening of a conference in support of the Palestinians. "The Zionist regime is a rotten, dried tree that will be eliminated by one storm."


Until the only voice left was the soothing of the caliphate.




7:10 p.m.

Back in the day, before the birth of Hamastan, I thought it possible that Israel would in fact release Barghouti. Honest. A deal with the devil they knew. And possibly the only person who could bring a micromilligram of practicality to the affair, while possessing Pale street cred. Not being fully familiar with the details of his prosecution and trial ..... after it's passing, it appeared to be just another former moonbat's peace dream. Now? Well, we don't necessarily believe the story:

'Report: Pollard, Barghouti deal in works'

And to what benefit Israel? Yes, a bene to Mr. Pollard and his family. But Hamastan is here. So, unless Barghouti has the will to wage civil war? Or even the ability? Strange f*cking world we live in. And getting more strange all the time.
